Episode notes
Curiosity Can Overturn Skepticism
- Ammar's pivot into UFOs began after watching Unsolved Mysteries in 2020 and confronting his own prior judgment of experiencers.
- That moment triggered a deep research rabbit hole and a mission to listen to marginalized witnesses with empathy.
Grush Video Lost Momentum Quickly
- Yes Theory's Grush interview had exceptional early metadata but flatlined in recommendations within 24 hours.
- Ammar suspects the video was suppressed because other contemporaneous Grusch content also underperformed or was flagged.
Humanizing Whistleblowers Broadens Reach
- Ammar framed the Grush rooftop session as a fresh public hearing to humanize the whistleblower beyond the congressional soundbites.
- He aimed to reach mainstream viewers unfamiliar with UAP discourse by balancing skeptic and believer perspectives.
